Some of it is pure fiction, don't take it seriously.

After the autumnal equinox, the temperature at night is getting lower and lower, and the wind at night is a bit dry, which makes his face hurt from shaving. Sheng Lin turned up his collar, covering half of his face, and his hair hangs softly by his ears.

Long hair is still a bit troublesome, Sheng Lin pulled his hair behind his ears for the first time tonight, and gradually became a little irritable.

There was a barber shop not far ahead, Sheng Lin dragged Xi Hezhou in, and there were very few customers inside, the eyes of the Tonys lit up when they saw the two people coming in.

"Who does the styling?" Tony graciously brought a cup of tea and some snacks to the two.

"Me." Sheng Lin took a bite of the snack, but it wasn't very tasty.

Xi Hezhou was watching from the side. In fact, he liked Sheng Lin's hair of this length very much, and he could help him tie it up every day, but Sheng Lin didn't seem to like it very much. He clamored for a haircut before he was discharged from the hospital.

"This handsome guy, the length of this hair is so good, it complements you very well." Tony said sweetly, "We'll give you a trim and a shape."

"No, cut it short for me."

Tony glanced at Xi Hezhou next to him, and Xi Hezhou just nodded to let Tony listen to Sheng Lin.

Although there were not many people in the shop and the place was small, it must be said that Tony's craftsmanship was not bad. Sheng Lin touched the back of his neck which was finally refreshed, and paid the money with satisfaction.

"Do you really want to ask me why I don't like long hair?"

Sheng Lin was walking in front, and occasionally pedestrians passed by on the street, and the shop's light signs were shining with colorful lights.

"Actually, there is no particular reason. It's just that long hair is too troublesome. I was told by the instructor several times when I was in college."

Xi Hezhou held a handful of Sheng Lin's freshly styled hair. Sheng Lin's hair was very thin, fluffy and felt good to the touch, but Xi Hezhou rubbed it, and the freshly done hairstyle was messed up.

"Long hair is also good-looking, no matter what."

Xi Hezhou just looked at Sheng Lin like this, with only one person in his eyes.

The two of them seldom have this kind of leisurely time for a walk. They walked one after the other by the artificial lake in the park. There were few people there and the street lights were dim, but occasionally there would be a few young couples and old people sitting under the street lights for a long time. Chair chat.

Sheng Lin didn't know what he was thinking, and suddenly stopped and waited for Xi Hezhou to catch up. When Xi Hezhou came to him, Sheng Lin stuffed his hand into the pocket of Sheng Lin Xi Hezhou's clothes, and interlocked his fingers in the pockets of his clothes.

"Why are you so clingy?"

Since Sheng Lin woke up, it has become more and more sticky. Although Xi Hezhou is not used to it, it is quite useful.

"Hands are cold." Sheng Lin looked at the sparkling water on the artificial lake, and felt the warmth of Xi Hezhou in his palm.

In fact, it’s not cold hands, it’s just that after this gland problem, he suddenly understood one thing, Xi Hezhou can persist in unrequited love for so many years, and the pain and entanglement in it can only be understood by him, if there is no such accident However, Xi Hezhou might not appear in Sheng Lin's life.

Xi Hezhou took 99 steps towards him, and Sheng Lin should have taken the last step.

"Then go back?"

Sheng Lin shook his head, cold hands were just an excuse, he just wanted to hold hands with Xi Hezhou.

There was a sudden burst of music not far away. At the end of the road, where the lights were brighter, two uncles were standing under the street lights, one was playing the saxophone and the other was playing the piano.

Occasionally, an aunt would sing along, singing songs of their era, talking and laughing, and missing the music and romance of that era.

"Hezhou, can you play the piano?"

"I learned a little bit when I was a child, I don't know if I still remember it."

That was all many years ago.

Sheng Lin pulled Xi Hezhou forward and walked in front of the two uncles. Sheng Lin stepped forward and said something to the uncle who played the piano, then turned around and pulled Xi Hezhou over.

"Uncle, can you let him try it?" Sheng Lin looks well-behaved, the type that the elders like, and the uncle readily agreed to Sheng Lin's request.

Xi Hezhou looked at Sheng Lin's expectant face, and it was not easy to refuse.

"Young man, what do you want to play, I will cooperate with you, your uncle and I can do everything." The uncle who played the saxophone was also very straightforward.

"Let me try first."

The electronic organ and the piano are still somewhat different, but Xi Hezhou got familiar with it very quickly, perhaps because of the muscle memory he developed in his youth, so that Xi Hezhou can still play a piece of music even after so many years.

"Hey, the young man played well, but it's a pity that this is an electronic organ. A piano would be better." The electronic organ uncle couldn't stop praising Sheng Lin.

The uncle who played the saxophone tried to keep up, but failed in the end. Xi Hezhou made a mistake in the middle of the play and paused for a while, but it did not affect the integrity of the music.

Sheng Lin doesn't understand music, but he can feel the flow of water waves in the sound of music, just like the artificial lake in front, as if he can see the sparkling water on the surface of the lake.

After thanking the uncle, the two left. Although the uncle wanted them to stay longer, Xi Hezhou refused.

"What did you play just now?" Very gentle and nice.

""On Wallenstadt Lake", I was forced to learn by the teacher before, but I still remember it."

Indeed, the song has the feeling of a breeze blowing across the lake, quiet and gentle.

Many years later, when Sheng Lin recalled this night, he would always have a happy smile on his face.

Tonight, there is wind and tenderness, music tells romance, and lovers accompany you.

They kissed in the dark place, Xi Hezhou wrapped Sheng Lin's head with his coat, and gently pecked the kiss, Sheng Lin was itchy and struggled to push Xi Hezhou away.

"Nonsense." Although Sheng Lin seemed to be angry, there was no blame in his eyes.

"Lin Lin, I love you so much." Xi Hezhou put his arms around Sheng Lin, wrapped Sheng Lin in his arms, and lowered his head to rub against Sheng Lin's neck.

Under the cover of the night, Xi Hezhou's words seemed to be covered with a layer of fog, hazy but real.

"Ok, I know."

Sheng Lin still didn't say the same thing, the word love was too heavy for him, he wanted to find a more formal occasion to say it to Xi Hezhou.

Facts have proved that Sheng Lin's body and bones are really not suitable for blowing in the wind. Unfortunately, Sheng Lin caught a cold the next day after returning home from a walk.

"Tell me, I'm going on a business trip right now, so how can I rest assured?" Xi Hezhou brought cold medicine to Sheng Lin, his eyes full of worry.

Ever since InterContinental Pharmaceuticals' new drug and a new type of inhibitor came into the market, it has received a lot of media attention. As a company representative, Xi Hezhou has also accepted a lot of interviews recently. He is going to participate in a seminar in a neighboring city tomorrow, and he will go there immediately after it is over. Go to Capital TV for an interview.

Busy schedule.

"I'm fine, I have a small cold, you can go." Sheng Lin sat on the bed, the medicine in the granule was a little hot, Sheng Lin sucked it in small mouthfuls, "Or you can take me there."

Of course, that latter statement was just a joke.

Over the years, Sheng Lin has suffered from a lot of serious and minor illnesses, so it's not because of a cold.

"Your body can't follow me around." Xi Hezhou sat on the edge of the bed and tested the temperature of Sheng Lin's forehead with the back of his hand.

It's okay, no fever.

"Well, I'm just kidding, I won't kiss you if you have a cold, be careful." There was a buzzing voice.

"Remember to eat on time. At the flower shop, if you are really unwell, please take a leave of absence. Remember to call me every night..."

Xi Hezhou babbled a lot, mostly trivial exhortations.

"Got it, got it, you're so long-winded." Sheng Lin took the last sip of the medicine, put the quilt on the table, wrapped the quilt up and nestled on the bed, closed his eyes, and pretended to be asleep.

Why are you becoming more and more like a child.

Xi Hezhou rubbed his head that was hugged outside, thinking helplessly.
